I am fighting with BCBS in PA to get just a single level C5/C6 ProDisk-C replacement. Although the C6/C7 disk is also pretty bad, my doctor is not as concerned at this time. I need document approval letters from BC anywhere to submit to my insurace carrier to help with my appeal. Can anyone help? Thanks

Hi Harrison,
I would also appreciate copies of approval letters for my hearing with Blue Cross of CA. I have already had the ADR surgery with ProDiscs at L4-S1. BC has denied me twice so I am asking for a hearing to keep fighting. Please let me know the best way to send the copies. Thank you, Cali |

My name is Sandy Wingfield. Two specialists have said that I need disk replacement. BCBS of NE has denied coverage. I too need copies of approval letters for my appeal.

Hi all,
A while back, I suggested that everybody consolidate their resources - and offered to receive successful appeals. Is that still a good idea? I think it is, so I'll ask people to send them to me. However, why should people do this? How can we incent them to help others like you? This takes me a lot of time. So let me know if there are ways to streamline the process.

Richard,
In terms of streamlining a process, (because I know handling that much info is a lot of work!) and I do not know if this is "kosher", but what if people take out the personal info on their appeals and you post them on one of the sites as attachments? Are you able to have that capacity on this site? (way too long a sentence and I hope it made sense) Phylly
